IMHO of course, but jeez, why did they bother? The album is sublime without it.

It lends a certain pataphysical tone though, don’t you think?

And as much as I love Elbow, I don’t think that Lewis’s advert version of Golden Slumbers is a patch on the original.

Haven’t heard it but doesn’t surprise me.

So Jim, how do you feel about Octopus’s Garden?

Sub-mission from Never Mind the Bollocks is poor, as is Closed Groove from Inflammable Material.

Its not even the worst song on that album….looks at Macca with stern eyes

“Sometimes Paul would make us do these really fruity songs. I mean, my god, Maxwell’s Silver Hammer was so fruity. After a while we did a good job on it, but when Paul got an idea or an arrangement in his head…”

George Harrison
Crawdaddy magazine, February 1977

Unusual use of the term “fruity” but it shows that even the Beatles had misgivings about some of Paul’s songs. Obla-di-obla-dah wasn’t that good either.

Junkyard – lazarus

Go on then….. 🙂

Her majesty – pointless adds nothing and after that ending nothing is needed as it will add nothing to what is a great side 2 – side 1 much less so IMHO

I believe even the beatles wanted it off and it was a mixing error but this may be rumour not sure?

True, but I can still bear to listen to it, if I remember it’s there, unlike MSH.

I like Octopuses Garden btw.
😐

Train in Vain has to be the best hidden/unlisted song on an album.

Mate of mine was in hysterics about how bad ‘Jimmy Jazz’ was on London Calling when we first bought it. Every track is superb on there to me!

I recently had to delete a track off a Little Simz album, due to really bad lyrics and the worst singing in the chorus ever! So sickly.
“A Curious Tale Of Trials + Persons” was the album… “God Bless Mary” being the track. I’m probably on my own there though 😆

Jazz Police on Cohen’s I’m Your Man. Dross.

I’ve got a mate who’s the same about Lover’s Rock, has been since he was 11.
He even left it off the cassette copy he made me.

I was a bit gobsmacked to discover it when I finally bought the album.

Mathematically Safe by HMHB from Trouble over Bridgewater is a bit crap.
Just doesn’t feel very HMHB, if you know what I mean.

Holiday by Green Day is a bit of a dirge too, tbh.

For every Jimmy Jazz, there’s a Brand New Cadillac (but then that’s a cover so…….).

Maxwells silver hammer is a great choon. not a bad song on that album, the beatles best imo.

9/15ths, on Puzzle, by Biffy Clyro. Not just a completely awful song but also one that inexplicably made it into their live set for a decade

Well I hate to admit it but I rather like The Unforgettable Fire if you remove Pride open pretentious brackets In The Name Of Love close pretentious brackets.

I’m with Dez on this, LC’s all killer, no filler.

I believe in this and it’s been tested by research……

So glad when Dire Straits Love Over Gold came out on CD, so I could easily either skip or programme out Industrial bloody Disease, which has no place on that album whatsoever.
It’s also the only DS album I like enough to own.

Go on, finish the lyric……

……..just another story.

She Likes Surprises on Superunknown has always seemed out of place. It doesn’t grate as much as it did, but for such a solid, long, full album, I think it could have done with being 3.5 mins shorter.

That track on The Stone Roses where they just ran Waterfall backwards. Rubbish.
The spoken bit after Pink Cellphone by Deftones on Saturday Night Wrist. Must have seemed like a good idea at the time.

Magic Window doesn’t add much to Geogaddi. Almost forget I’m listening to it.

Right, having had a think and a nosey through the records, I’m going for Stairway.
It is a truly awful tune and like all Zepp lyrics, so epically embarrassing it’s impossible to stop giggling.

How can you complain about Maxwell when there’s that abomination of a tune “sung” by Ringo?

Closed groove on Inflamable Material, utter drivel.

Music Hall Paul wrote some pure howlers but then also wrote Here There And Everywhere and Darlin’ so can almost be excused.

I always stopped GnR’s use your illusion 2 when it got to My World, although apparently some people like it….

Always hated “walk of life” on brothers in arms. I don’t mind Faith No Mores cover of “Easy” but it did not belong on a re-issued Angel Dust.

Well, if we are talking Beatles:
The
Long
And
Winding
Road
Will grate on me till I die.

And as for the reverse loop of waterfall. No way, that’s the statement piece of the album. Imho.

Controversial!

I detest ‘The Lemon Song’ from Led Zepp II, an album I otherwise love

My ‘auto-skip’, ‘I Want Your (Hands on Me)’ from Sinead’s Lion & Cobra
